Kindercare Silverdale

Kia Ora,

When visiting a childcare centre, ‘gut feel’ is very important. I encourage you to look for a daycare centre in which you feel comfortable, where their values align with yours, where you know your child and whānau will be loved and respected, and where you believe the aspirations for your child will be met.

That’s why we’d love for your family to come and personally visit our centre. Every family and indeed every child is unique. So we provide a tailored approach to visits, start dates, and enrolment in more detail, to do our best to meet your needs. We’d love to meet you and your child; chat to you personally and show you around our wonderful centre. We will also introduce you to our nurturing and committed team, so you feel part of our Kindercare whānau.

We can’t wait to welcome your family, today. We are conveniently located for families in Orewa, Red Beach, and Silverdale, on the Hibiscus Coast.

With love,
Jane Platts
Centre Director / Pou Kaitiaki

Why Choose Our Centre

Simply put, it’s because we offer outstanding early childhood care and learning. But here are a few other great reasons:

• We have long-serving Kaiako with a wealth of experience and stability, providing a home away from home.
• The Pathways to School and Kura program is weaved throughout the rooms, particularly in our preschool room to support tamariki in preparing for their primary school years.
• We value fun, trust, growth, whānau and teamwork—all values we believe are crucial in enabling freedom to learn through play, and for tamariki to make their own choices.
• Kai is included. We provide high-quality, plant-based whole-food meals for tamariki—all cooked on-site and prepared with love.
• Our operational hours allow us to provide flexible options to suit your family’s needs, including full-time and part-time care.
• We offer a generous leave policy because we understand the unpredictability of children’s absences.

About Our Care

We are committed to maintaining a culture of kindness and providing respectful care in an environment where tamariki are recognised for who they are and the mana they possess. Every child deserves to have their individuality recognised, respected and supported, to know that their contribution makes a difference.

At Kindercare Silverdale, our team believes we are sending tamariki out into the world as wonderful all-rounders who recognise their own unique value. That is why we are committed to providing care and education that sets them up for success—socially, academically, physically, and emotionally.

Our devoted Kaiako provide an environment where learning is fun, where curiosity and wonder are celebrated and a growth mindset is encouraged. The learning that matters here is developed collaboratively, with the aspirations of families and whānau playing an important part in supporting each child’s learning journey. It all begins with relationships and family.

Ki te kāpuia e kore e whati.
We succeed together.
